As a reminder that protests donât end where they start: when news of the Stamp Act first arrived in America in May 1765, most printers reacted by advertising on the premise of âbuy now before prices go up.â Took until August/September for even the people most affected to actively turn against it.

Itâs a recalibration of economic control. Oligarchs donât live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way. When the dust finally settles, they will own more. The rest of us will own less. A lot less.

Respectfully my friend, itâs NOT just the fault of one man. Itâs the fault of an entire political party that bowed like cowards to this one man. And itâs the fault of way too many of his voters who allowed him to lie to them every single day for the past 10yrs. They ALL own this.

Why would a leader tank his own country's economy? It's a key part of the aspiring autocrat's playbook. Tariffs & chaos mean more power & control for Trump. But America has no king. The Republican-led Congress can stop this at any time. Let your reps hear from you.

Important to remember that the reason most Trump voters think everything's fine is that their chosen media is telling them little more than that he's cutting government waste and frogmarching criminals out of the country. Real information doesn't reach them. An economic collapse? That might.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.
